Terrie’s Take is a selection of Japan-centric news collected and collated by long-time resident and media business professional Terrie Lloyd. AkihabaraNews is pleased to present Terrie’s learned perspective; we all could use another take on the news - here’s Terrie’s:

Sanwa Supply has started selling a wireless ergonomic mouse "400-MA059" for 8,980 yen.

It's a 2.4GHz wireless mouse that is designed to prevent tendonitis and allows you to hold it effortlessly without twisting your wrist. The shape is symmetric so that anyone can use it regardless of which hand your dominant hand is.

Laser type sensor is used for 400-MA059, and you can adjust it from 4 different cursor speed levels (400/800/1,400/2,400).

It's getting steadily hotter in Japan. I will need to start using the air conditioner throughout the nights soon, but because the air comes from the air conditioner is too strong, I know that constantly leaving it on makes my body feel sluggish.
